A quick look around iTunes 11

Apple's newest version of iTunes arrived today, just a day ahead of the company's self-imposed deadline.

Its crowning feature is a redesign that Apple promises is simpler than previous iterations. Seen here is the new album view, which expands out to show tracks much like a folder in iOS or OS X pops out.

Once you've found an item from the results, you can dig a little bit deeper without jumping back to the full-sized player. This includes things like giving it a rating, and adding it to existing playlists.
